Galeon Yachts has once again redefined innovation with the world premiere of the Galeon 430 EXPLORER at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2025. As the first model in Galeon’s all-new explorer range, the 430 EXP is designed for adventurous owners who seek style, functionality, and the freedom to cruise farther—and in greater comfort—than ever before.
A New Breed of Explorer Yacht
The Galeon 430 EXP combines a rugged, capable hull with the sleek contemporary styling the shipyard is known for. Designed for long-range cruising and off-the-grid exploration, this compact explorer introduces a host of intelligent features aimed at maximizing both space and experience.
Its forward-positioned superstructure creates a vast, multifunctional aft deck, ideal for storing tenders, water toys, or serving as an expansive outdoor relaxation zone. Up top, the expansive flybridge serves as the social heart of the yacht, complete with a U-shaped sofa, a dedicated dining area, a wet bar with grill, and a forward helm station—all designed to make life onboard both practical and pleasurable.
Designed for Connection and Comfort
Step inside, and the 430 EXPLORER surprises with its spacious, luminous interior. Panoramic windows flood the main deck with natural light, enhancing the sense of openness and providing uninterrupted views of the seascape. High-end materials and refined finishes reflect Galeon’s unwavering commitment to craftsmanship and luxury.
The salon is both social and functional, featuring a cleverly placed sofa and table near the helm so that even the captain remains part of the conversation while underway. Signature Galeon fold-out balconies extend the living space, offering new ways to relax just inches above the water.
Adventure-Ready, Without Compromise
True to its explorer designation, the 430 EXP is built to take on ambitious itineraries—whether island-hopping in Southeast Asia or exploring remote coastlines. Its efficient hull form, robust construction, and extended range make it ideal for those who value independence and adventure.
Yet this capability doesn’t come at the expense of comfort. The layout includes generous cabins, a well-appointed galley, and intelligent storage throughout. The main deck’s reclinable backrest and extendable seating offer versatile lounging options, perfect for sunset watching or casual dining.
A New Chapter for Galeon
The 430 EXP marks Galeon’s first foray into the expedition yacht segment—a move that reflects growing demand for yachts that are both capable and chic. It retains the brand’s signature innovation—such as the folding terraces and flexible layouts—while introducing a new level of robustness and range.
